No public transport in Amsterdam on Tuesday as strikes continue

Monday 06 June 2011

There will be no public transport in Amsterdam on Tuesday, as bus, tram and metro workers go on strike in protest at government cuts.

Public transport services will stop at around 03.00 hours on Tuesday and not start again until 01.00 hours on Wednesday morning.

Staff are angry that the government plans to cut €120m from public transport spending and force Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague to put bus and tram services out to tender.

The Hague's public transport will be hit by a 24-hour strike on Wednesday and Rotterdam will follow on Thursday.
